License Network Plots

Please review to the License Networks to understand which license code corresponds with which license type

Annual network plots

These plots include all data points, including years in which certain licenses may not have been issued

Edge density

Below is the time series of network edge density. The density of a graph is the ratio of the actual number of edges and the largest possible number of edges in the graph, assuming that no multi-edges are present. A network with higher density suggests more connections within the network. In the case of license networks, a more dense network would suggest more accesibility within fisheries and a less dense network would have less accessibility across fisheries.
